especially if your marriage had lasted many years.

opens the door to new beginnings.

and agree that there is no winner, no loser,
only people who have wearied of fighting
and desire to live in peace.

joint Protestant-Catholic commemoration
of the Northern Ireland dead,
comprised of members of the once-outlawed Sinn Fein
as well as their once-avowed enemies,

of death in war and civil conflict."
